A 2 day in-person training to maximise your use of NVivo.

For complete beginners and for those who have already started using NVivo Develop your skills in analysing qualitative data using NVivo to help you with your doctoral thesis and beyond.

The course provides a comprehensive overview of NVivo by focusing on its core components and analytic capabilities. Students are supported in using the software in guided hands-on sessions, and are encouraged to bring work-in-progress for individual support with analysis.

We discuss common approaches and methods of analysis and how to operationalise these in the software. This provides a framework for planning, undertaking and documenting your analysis.
